Program question

What is a good weight of cardstock for making programs?? I was planning on doing half fold

How many should i make??? My ceremony is at the church but it seems like most guest are coming to that. My estimate at this point is 180 guests (mostly couples)

Thanks girls

i bought standard wedding program paper that makes half fold they carry it at michaels or staples

there wasn't a particular weight being that is was standard wedding programs

HTH

you may be safe with 100 programs

I think 32lb. would work well - especially if you're DIYing.

Like a heavy resume paper.

They have nice ivory linen paper in Staples. I used them for my inserts in my invitations and they were a perfect weight in the printer. I didn't have to sit there and feed it individually, which is prob what I would have had to do with a heavier cardstock.

eta: I'd do 100 programs too.

Oh - i was looking at 65lb -- i thought since im only doing the 1 sheet - it should be thicker? I dont really care if there thin - but i dont want the ink to show since im printing on both sides.

I used cover stock, and although it was a little thick I really liked the look that it gave especially for the cover.
